Homefield Advantages

A joking comment at work about the Vikings getting to wear actual horned helmets on the field has led to this post – if your team could have a true homefield advantage, what would it be? Here’s what I came up with:

Minnesota Vikings – Wearing actual horned helmets.

Detroit Lions – In the red zone, there is a trap door where an actual lion comes out, Gladiator-style.

New York Jets – Jet. Powered. Skateboards.

New England Patriots – If a receiver gets behind the D, Bill Belichick is authorized to shoot them with a musket (non-lethal beanbag if you must).

Chicago Bears – Three times per game, an actual bear can be brought in at running back. Must be taught to carry the ball with his front paws, and not eat Ed Hochuli.
